You Guys are awsome with your advice and assistance - thanks a lot.

When using the standard list box control - Is there any way to have rows of
data appear in different colour based on certain criteria:

Example:
I have a list box based on a query that has a few data points one of which
is DispCode - based on the value of DispCode can I get the row in the list
box to show up as a colour that I can set?

I dont think this is possible with the standard MSAccess Listbox Control but
I thought I would ask anyway and to see if anyone had any suggestions for a
different control that might work for me.

Thanks all,

Jeff

You might be able to get what you're trying to get by using a subform with
Conditional Formatting rather than a list box.

I think that TList, from Bennet-Tec, can do what you want as well
